Is Peter going to Hell?  bible says yes

-----------


It's nothing new for Christians to brag about St Peter also known as The Rock, the disciple of Jesus who is probably mentioned more times then any other disciples.  Not to forget Peter was the first to visit the empty tomb making him a Hero Witness to Christians. We also have to alleged letters written by Peter the fisherman 

Now as much as Peter is praised there is also a darker  side to Peter. One has to Question his Credibility and where he stands is he a friend or foe? Let's read a few passages from the New Testament and find out what's really in offer for Peter.

-----------------------------

We read from the NT after Jesus was telling his disciples what was going to having to him. Peter disputed or actual words REBUKED Jesus? Something very unusual since none of the other disciples dared to. 

Peter took Him aside and began to rebukeHim. “Far be it from You, Lord! he said. “Thisshall never happen to You!” But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men. (Matthew 16:22-23)

Notice from the Above passage that not only did Peter REBUKE Jesus he was also CALLED SATAN !! Once again no other disciple was called Satan like Peter was.

-----------------------------

Another dilemma Christians have to deal with is why did Peter Deny Jesus three times? If Peter was truly a follower and believer in Jesus why did he Deny him? 

And as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came, and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, “You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus.” But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you mean.” And he went out into the gateway and the rooster crowed. And the servant girl saw him and began again to say to the bystanders, “This man is one of them.” But again he denied it. And after a little while the bystanders again said to Peter, “Certainly you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.” But he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak.” And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept. (Mark 14:66-72)

It kind of adds up when you read how Peter REBUKED Jesus and didn't believe him one can easily accept why he Denied Jesus his apparent saviour.

-------------------------------

Now this is a very embarrassing passage for Peter and the other disciples but whilst in context Peter seems to be the main man of Dispute. We read from the latters of Paul to Corinthians that Peter was a Hypocrite !!! 

When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong. Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group. ( why did people such as the Apostle James still believe that the law regarding food should still be applied? If Jesus came to replace the law, then why are they still following the law?) The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray. (so, Peter, James and Barnabas are wrong
(Galatians 2:11-13)

According to Paul Peter is a Hypocrite imagine that need I say more!

----------------------------

Peter the rock the will be disowned by Jesus according to his own words this is a serious matter which Christians are not aware of. One of the points made on this paper was Peter denying Jesus well this is how Peter will be denied.




"I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times." (Mark 14:30)
 
Immediately a rooster crowed. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: "Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times." And he went outside and wept bitterly. (Matthew 26:75)



                           --------------------------Peter Disowned -------------------------------------


But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven. (Matthew 10:33)
 
 
But he who disowns me before men will be disowned before the angels of God. 
(Luke 12:9)

The question is if one of the close follower (disciple) of Jesus is not saved what makes you Christians say your are. Seems like Christians are in a serious dilemma !!!! SHAME
